Wow. I thought this was going to be a waste of time or, at the very least, not worth chancing the hordes of people but that was just kind of spectacular. We don't have anything quite like this Times Square thing at home and I've never really celebrated the New Year as a holiday before. This city goes all out, doesn't it? New York is kind of beautiful at night. And the celebration was even more spectacular from the rooftops. It was kind of breathtaking, honestly. And the sheer energy pulsing from the crowds was just ...wow. I feel like I could run across rooftops all night now. Good job, New York, you've made me like you just a bit more.

Happy New Year, both of you. I'm glad we're here together.

That's a human tradition I can get used to.

But next time, more water, less getting distracted.

That was amazing, but I think I need new feet. Mine are numb.

Thanks for the dances, all you wonderful people. Especially you Power Girl. ;)

I'm still finding confetti in odd places and I'm pretty sure I'm partially deaf now. Completely worth it. 2013 you haven't let me down yet.

To those brave souls who ventured out to Times Square with me, destroy those pictures. All of them.

Who: Veronica Mars and Lilly Kane
What: A surprise reunion
Where: Veronica and now Lilly's apartment, Pott's Tower
When: After Veronica and Sam's conversation, after midnight Jan 1st
Rating:Low, though there might be some swearing in shock!
Status: closed; in progress

She was worried-would being here make her forget her purpose? Would she forget Lilly in the absence of constant reminders of her? She knew the answer was no. She was who she was because of Lilly Kane, and nothing would change that. )

Shut up! I wind up in New York City on January 1st?! I MISSED NEW YEAR'S EVE IN NEW YORK CITY?

Are you serious?

attention, wizards:

i need help with putting up emotional walls, or mental wards, or wards against mental energy on my apartment, or something. my head still hurts from the emotion explosion at midnight last night, and i don't want to do another one like that. if mental/emotional magic is your expertise and you think you can help, please let me know.

thank you,
molly.

It's such a shame for the only men in my life to be a cat and an elderly dog of my dear friend's.

Although to be fair, couldn't have spent New Year's without my best friend here, her dog, and my cats. So that statement only stands for now on. If I'm stuck here might as well meet people and hang out with people, right? because Harry's not here and well, i don't know if we can go back to that anyways

So, men of Potts Towers, I'm looking for new friendly faces - I suppose I can't leave out the ladies - so I'm looking for a bunch of people to go to the ice skating rink with. Who's up for ice hilarity?

Molly - you are SO invited on this. Because. Filtered: Molly Best friend here? Hells yes you are. I'll figure out some charm to help block emotions of WOAH. We have the power to fix this!

Times Square was interesting. Back in the day, it used to be more of a crowd than the small pits of orderly celebrations and hysteria. Steve, do you remember when the shopkeepers would put up plywood because they were sure their store-fronts wouldn't stand through the New Year?

Otherwise, I was very happy to ring in the New Year with Steve Rogers and millions of his friends. Yes, in case you're wondering, I enjoyed the hell out of that kiss.

I found that I have an in with the nurse who takes care of me in the old folks home. No tattoo on the wrist, lovely. Happy New Year.

I want to thank all that made this and last night so lovely. It is a pleasure to have met such wonderful people here. I am glad to have made friends. I was unsure of my ability to do so but I am pleased by the surprise.

Jyuushiro, Inuyasha, Kurama, do let me know if I can assist you in anything. I am looking forward to further celebrations with you all. I would be pleased to offer you a dinner meal some night as well. friends, outside of Usagi, Uranus and Neptune, is rather exciting


To all residents of the Towers - at the end of the month I will be opening a Tea House here. I do look forward to offering you all a quiet place to think and converse.


Usagi
I pray you had a lovely New Year's.
Are there more episodes to watch?

I can't help but look back at my life since I've arrived here. I have to say, the only way this could get better is if my mum and dad were here.

Still, hard to be sad right? All of my other favorite people are here and that's more than I could ever ask for. 2013 is going to be a brilliant year, I think!

Now I feel like I really ought to leave the tower for an hour or so. I slept in late, and I feel so ridiculously lazy. There has to be something I can do so I can feel like I've been a little productive with my day!

Martha Jones
I saw you and Mickey last night, does that mean you've talked to him? About the two of you?

Text to Sam Winchester

>>So I got back to my apartment last night, and my dead best friend is now my roommate.
>>Surprise!

>>And looks like your dad is here?

>>This place is so weird.

>>Um...thanks for last night though.

It seems odd to let this day go by without someone saying it on the network.

Happy New Year. I hope you all managed to get some rest after the big night.
